I see the point ... and agree. >> This seems to be a small change, and not satisfying the snap case. > > Possibly hiding "squashfs" of readonly-mounts could get rid of those snaps? Possibly. But still the same question: how many users would like to see them per default, and how many do not? I would not like to argue for something like a ~/.dfrc, but it seems there are a lot of different flavors of wishes out there. Yet leaving the default seems to be a wise choice to me. FWIW: df has the -x option, but if someone would use it in an alias like "df -x sqashfs", then there's currently no chance to override it again: $ alias df='/usr/bin/df -x tmpfs' $ df -t tmpfs df: file system type 'tmpfs' both selected and excluded Have a nice day, Berny
